So I'm a couple days late to the party, but in the latest comic Tracer is revealed to be a fan of the roast beef, so to speak.

I have been informed by extremely insecure nerds that this is the great crisis of our time, as this is either:
  • Yet another insidious attempt by the Gay Agenda (TM) to convince our virile male youth to go on a dick-sucking spree in a Flying J trucker shower stall via the siren call of a lipstick lesbian
  • Blizzard politicizing a formerly "neutral" character since none of her in-game lines involve asking teammates about which strap-on they think looks cutest, and as we all know gay people only start at "Big Gay Al" and get more faggy THUPER from there
  • Like having a gay pride parade in the Vatican

Meanwhile, everyone ignores the truly outrageous part of the comic: that worst character in the game for garbage people Torbjorn has a bunch of kids with his smoking hot wife. Who cares about sucking off Republican senators through airport glory holes when we're teaching kids that playing a turret class in an FPS is the express highway to Fuck City with partners so out of your league that you're not even playing the same sport?

Like half of Overwatch's cast isn't as gay as the day is long anyway.

But are they gay according to the exacting standards of my headcanon? How will I know how to arrange the seating at Widowmaker and Tracer's wedding if Blizzard insists on fucking everything up?

Yes that's definitely not exactly what SOS just linked to :c

But on a different note, really enjoying the Symmetra changes. Nobody seems prepared for an actually aggressive Symmetra so I've been able to run rampant and averaged 10-12k damage per game, plus the shield generator being so much more useful in most cases than the teleporter is a plus. Still surprised how few enemy teams actually try to find it and just kinda let it happen lol.

Aggro Symmetra was always scary but now she's downright terrifying and I love my beautiful aspie Indian princess.

Symm's gun is now downright cancer. Autoaim and enough damage and range so that you can't flee without being literally winston. Genji, Pharah, Speed!Lucio and Tracer can if they're bloody quick and in enough space, but otherwise? Good luck. No escape, and you'll probably be outdamaged unless you get insanely lucky with Hog, or if you have backup. Like half your team's taking her on sort of backup. She's ok everywhere else, her main gun is just... she went from mediocre and situational to being better than some offense heroes at their job, while not needing to bother with minor details like aiming.

I didn't see that it was a link! I followed it from something posted in an OW discord. My b.

@sos She states in her comic that she is "asked where she fits on the spectrum" but nothing specific has been confirmed.

@iron Lol sym's gun is like a Winston tickler. It gets stronger the more she throws her fragile little curry-in-a-hurry 200hp body into the enemy team, but it starts off with a delightful 30 dps.

If you're jumping around crazily trying to dodge Symmetra's lockon beam, you're making your own shots harder to aim. ADAD is all you need anyway.

Like Winston, walking through her forces her to have to turn around. The beam unlocks if you don't have the enemy on your screen for 1 second. Like Winston, uselessly walking away from Symmetra isn't going to accomplish much. Unlike Winston, shooting Symmetra is an option for every hero to take, as she has no armor and only 200 or 275 hp.

As a Symmetra main, I can tell you that she is fragile af, and should be a high priority target in a group fight because 120 DPS autolock gun is pretty good, but you have to be in the fray a lot, and most heroes have a way to escape/outdamage her gun before it can kill. She's mostly supposed to be clean up, and as a support she shouldn't be out on her own like how I see a lot of Symm players play her as.

She has no armor, but equally she's also a fucker to hit because most of them are jumping around. Also yes it's a winston tickler, but I can't play Winston for shit- the only tanks I'd even consider using are rein and hog, both of whom are... not my strongest suit.

Also bear in mind this is just my opinion, and I have both abysmal reaction times and no mic, so it's qp and dealing with deathbox symm.

Bastion changes incoming! Mind you these are pre-PTR even so who knows how much of this will stick but here's what they've been experimenting with:

Quote:
Recon Mode - Lowered spread and increased magazine size, to help with general viability in this mode.

Sentry Mode - We're looking at focusing this mode into more of a tank-buster and barrier-buster mode, while also making it feel less suicidal to be transformed. To that end we're testing stuff like increased spread and removing headshots, but taking less damage while transformed.

Self-Repair - We've been testing a few big changes to this that are feeling really good so far. Currently our internal build has Bastion able to use Self-Repair while moving and also having it no longer interrupted when taking damage. To balance that out it is now on a resource system (similar to the route D.Va's defense matrix went). These changes have turned this ability from a more niche rarely used ability, to a much more powerful and core survivability tool.

New tank b o i s

EDIT: According to Kaplan, Orisa is supposed to be more of an anchor-style, low-mobility tank like Reinhardt.

Welp, we got a new event, this time a story mode...sort of. Like Junkenstein it's PvE (with a tie-in comic) with four characters (Torbjorn, Reinhardt, Tracer, and *the best* Mercy.) Unlike Junkenstein, there's an alternative mode that lets you play any hero.

So yeah, I got the new Mercy skin with it and am absolutely adoring it. :3

Yeah short hair mercy is a blessing. Tbh the game mode itself is hell though, probably because the only character in there that I play even remotely often is rein, and normal rein play isn't really worth it here- you need to be much more offensive.
